The only thing you can do is try and go on a cup run and try to organize big friendlies. You need cash in the bank ASAP.

It will be, but the good news about being semi-professional is that you can bring in players for free and just pay them for playing matches and on non-contracts. The only challenge will be that players will be picked up by bigger/richer clubs when they have the money.

Keep the tactic super simple, make sure it has a solid backline and a good target man up front (good and solid being relative to the quality of the available players) and then spend most of your time scouring the market for decent free transfers to bring in. Cut anybody who may have a lot of...

Oh and what's more: every match, someone seems to get injured. I've got Ballotelli, De Sciglio and now Tom Cleverly (who I brought in) hurt.

Well ****. I am AC Milan, I've got Man City and Bayern in my group in the Champions' League.

I'm set as an ex-international from Germany. It's really kind of queer that nobody wants to sign.

I'm playing the Global Free Agent Challenge for a lark and I chose Real Madrid. I figured they're a worldwide club with great finances, why not? Well it turns out that no top level players are willing to sign with me (won't even talk contract) except for Daniele De Rossi. Once I sign De Rossi...

FIRST SIGNING FIRST SIGNING! I've made my first signing and I'm quite excited about it. It's the 20 year-old wonderkid, Ricardo Rodriguez who plays Left Back. We signed him for 10M pounds from Wolfsburg and he is already better than Danny Rose and promises to get pretty ****** incredible...

PART SECOND. The Innaugural Press Conference PART SECOND. The First Press Conference It is what makes or breaks a Manager's career: the Press Conference. If this gang of sharks comes to like you, you can do no wrong. If they come to hate you, well... just ask the litany of Managers who've...

The Fighting **** A Tottenham Hotspur Story After a season of disappointment for the vast majority of Spurs supporters, it seemed to me, as one of those disappointed supporters, that the best thing to do was to start an FM save controlling the Spurs and try my hand at doing better than my club...

Yeah don't keep badgering him. Just let him play and time will heal wounds.

Consider pushing Strootman back to CDM. You can still keep him as DLP(D) but he might be more useful in shielding the CBs.

In addition, I would play a more defensive formation. Pick up some really strong CB and a solid Anchorman.

How does the USA work since there is no relegation/promotion scheme there?
